WHALEWATCHING!
About
the whales:
Each year, from late December
through April, humpback whales migrate to the warm waters
of Hawaii to calve, mate and rear their young. The shallow
waters surrounding Maui are known as the "cradle of
the humpback" due to the fact that a large number of
humpbacks are raised in this area.
Calves
are born weighing in at around 3000 pounds and grow
at a rate of 200 pounds a day during the first few weeks
of life. The adults have been known to reach 45 feet
in length and may weigh up to 40 tons.
The humpback whale has been protected from whaling in
U.S. waters since 1966 and is presently listed as an
endangered species. Education is our most effective
tool in saving this species from extinction. Viewing
these majestic creatures from our whale watching boats
is not only one of the most exciting things you will
ever do, but narration by our naturalists will enlighten
you to the life of the humpback whales.
